IP Routing
© Copyright Lenovo 2017
When IP interfaces are configured for the various IP subnets attached to your
switch, IP routing between them can be performed entirely within the switch. This
eliminates the need to send inter‐subnet communication to an external router
device. Routing on more complex networks, where subnets may not have a direct
presence on the CN4093, can be accomplished through configuring static routes or
by letting the switch learn routes dynamically.
This part of the Setup program prompts you to configure the various routing
parameters.
At the prompt, enable or disable forwarding for IP Routing:
Enable IP forwarding? [y/n]
Enter y to enable IP forwarding. To disable IP forwarding, enter n. To keep the
current setting, press <Enter>.
